HiColor Red for dark hair review

I should have done my roots longer. The red came out pretty nice except my roots. With the Majirouge yes I bleached my hair but I got the color evenly throughout... This I would buy again if I cant find Majirouge. Ugh wish it wouldve worked. And to anyone who has tried this and it turned well ure hair isnt that hard to lift like you thought. Oh well still rocking the red so its cool.


Red dye for dark hair

I'm a L'Oreal girl for hair color. Usually I get Majirouge 6.60 w/ a red mixer to get the shade like RhiRhi had. I'm giving L'Oreal HiColor for dark hair Red a try. It was easy to apply but a bit messy. No matter how much petroleum you pack on with long hair the neck will get stained. Luckily I bought stain removing wipes also. This waiting time sucks I want to see the color!! Well this is what I used and before I applied and after I saturated my head... More after pics later..

Organizing Polishes can be a pain :/

ugh.. :/ I feel like the worse polish owner ever. I am not a fan of those DIY shelves to hold polishes because I just can't trust the foam to hold all my lovely polishes securely. You know about Caboodles?? I was obsessed with owning one growing up. To me when a girl gets her own Caboodle she was no longer a "child" (in my head thats how it worked). Well I just got my FIRST ever cute Caboodle black train case as a gift :)... I pile all my polishes in this thing..it's ridiculous. I will take a pic for you. I am buying polishes 3x a week now, sales and coupons amount to frequent trips. So since my collection is growing I need HELP! How do you store your polishes? Leave me links if you want or pics of ideas cause I NEED IT. I have over 50 polishes in my Caboodle not counting the dozen or so I've bought this week alone. Should I buy more Caboodles?? I think I need to invest in a bigger Caboodle..hmm we'll see. HELP leave me ideas or pointers.

Red hair & Thor

I love funny/funky/cool tees! Curls set eyes cant stay open but love the Thor tee :D.



Remington Pearl Curls

Heat defense spray & Remington pearl hot rollers =






Heat defense is a must

Dove heat defense is bomb! Love this stuff. I do not use any other hair products when I use my Remington Pearly Clip hot set rollers and Dove Heat Defense. My curls stay for nearly 2 days and yes I sleep on them no special ritual either. I work early as heck so I try to do my hair the night before. I will do some pics in a bit... No make up "I aint scurrred." Lol.


Suave dry shampoo

Suave came out with several dry shampoos  I've tried two so far. The first one I tried was the Suave Pro Keratin Infusion dry shampoo. To me it did what a dry shampoo is suppose to refresh my hair, take away the oily feel, great volume, clean scalp feel. Keratin infused one has a aerosol like smell (expected) but yet tropical. The Suave Pro dry shampoo (green cap no other specifics) to me does not give me as much volume as I want (no not like Snooki). It does remove the oily feel but thats it. Also the smell reminds me of an artificial green apple smell. I got the Keratin infused one at Walmart for $3.47, regular one was from Target for $2.47. I would buy the Keratin infused one again. I will keep trying more dry shampoos and let u know my honest opinion. Dyed redheads use dry shampoo quite a few times a week. Down fall is I feel like I only got 4 uses out of the first canister so we'll see cause im making note on the 2nd canister on how many uses I will get.




Marbling with multiple colors

I will be using some Wet n' Wild Fast Dry polishes that I bought in a summer pail a few months ago for $9.99 from CVS. A lot came in the bucket plus one white nail art bottle and some stencils. Sinful Colors had a $0.99 each sale at Walgreens, I bought a bunch in September 2011, I'll be using three of those. Caught a NYX sale at the Beauty Outlet in Ellenton it was 10 NYX items for $5!! Using Karnak as a base its a slight shimmery nude. Lastly I have two random polishes I got from the nail supply store in Tampa.




Water Marbling

So many drops to start/create a design/look that I sometimes cringe. I do water marble looks only with my least expensive polishes but always finish with a good top coat. I feel horrible exposing my little secret but I cant tolerate fishing out excess polish and not feeling like I wasted some. :/ anyone know of a less wasting way to marble? I love the unique looks I get marbling but I am not "ok" with doing that with OPI, Essie, and etc. Marbling now will post in a bit.

Dashing Diva DesignFX

Four day wear.. So far still good as a trial run. Ring finger has no clear and lost 2 stones/dots after getting finger caught in my hair a few times. The Pinky has clear and still lays nice. I do dishes at home, type a lot, and am very clumsy. I would purchase these again, fab product Dashing Diva!



RIP iPhone..

One drop dead! I was sooo upset. Ugh now what do I do with this? Its all white screened when on. Dang it Apple you need to work on drop testing for ur devices. Not spending $$$ on iPhone 4s so back to Android. :/



Fueling up for a tutorial and a new nail look

Old school I know. Chef Boyardee easy and fills me up! A childhood go to that will remain in my life.


Ardell lashes deal..

Buy 2 get 1 free at Sally's!! Its Ardell lashes all types. I just bought some elf ones that I wanted to try because they come with a vial of gel adhesive. But this deal on Ardell will be a good addition to my back up stash.

Sparitual??

I want this brand of polish sooo badly but am not sure where to find them for a good price!! Do u have any ideas?? Also do you love or hate them? I've heard mixed reviews. Also right now on Facebook they are giving some proceeds to oursoil.org :) I love a good cause!! So neat and the duo set that some of the proceeds go to the organization is pretty cute, earth-tones but glittery :)!! So are you a Sparitual buyer or not? Should I even spends some $$ on this or is there another brand you prefer to give your $$ to? If so pls share :)
